For those that were wondering when the mainstream corporations were going to step in... this is their 'help by proxy'. The EFF is funded and run by some of the best in the internet world.

I exchanged many emails to Brad Templeton (chairman of EFF) in trying to make the case that EFF should step in. Fighting for digital rights is such a broad charter, that they were not ready to take on patents.

This news today is incredible news....EFF is so mainstream with the companies that fund and support it (and individuals like DD).

One of their attorneys wrote to me today, that Acacia is definitely on their list.

Lots of things buzzing..i'll be updating with news as soon as I get it.
